Presidentís Message

How about this Chilly weather? Itís telling us all that the
Cruising season will soon be over. However, thereís still time to get out in
your Chevy and enjoy the Fall Foliage! As a matter of Fact, the Denneryís have
organized a Club Pumpkin run scheduled for October 19th; make you plans now
to join in on the fun. I want to personally thank them both for setting this
up; I know the membership really appreciates it too. There will be details listed
for this in this monthís newsletter.

Now for some club business updates: Leigh Humphreys and John Lucas have been
working on configuring an online Want Ad service for us on the JLG website.
It has been tested by Mr. Lucas and it was discussed at last meeting some of
the best ways to manage it. I want to thank them both for their work on this,
attempting to streamline club operations. Lee will be providing updates at the
next business meeting.
Our new Club Flyers will soon be printed. We will distribute them to the membership
so they may in-turn take them to car events and place them on prospective new
members vehicles. Additionally, we will be delivering some of these to be offered
out at the NJ Auto Museum in Point Pleasant, NJ. New members help perpetuate
the club and offer us an increased opportunity to socialize and see new vehicles.

Please take note; our next regular meeting at the Center will be on October
13.We will be selecting an Election Chairman for the first round of Board Members
nominations. These Board Members are the ones who guide your club, so give it
some serious thought regarding your nominations.

It has been my privilege to serve as your President for the past three years.
We have seen some great events in the club; hosting a National Convention that
received high accolades, donating funds to both the Sandy Relief Fund and the
NJ Auto Museum, joint club cruises with the Corvair Club, vehicle displays at
the Burlington Chevy Dealer, outstanding Club Banquets and Picnics, and the
list goes on. Most of these events were a result of planning by your Board in
conjunction with membership input and support. It has been my pleasure to work
with these fine folks during my tenure, I couldnít have asked for better support.
I have given it a lot of consideration, and have decided not to accept nominations
for another term. Itís time for some new ideas to inspire the club, and keeping
with this, a new president. So consider carefully at nomination time.
